Every crew, every ????, and every posse The most rhymes in New York State New York City Every crew, every ????, and every posse New York City New York State [Verse 1] Hold your hat son don't look back, run Hide the kids, I'm low down like high eyelids Fly with mic sk**s that might k** More cats in one breath than a Chinese chef Mic check one two, nowhere to run you Shouldn't have stalled after you heard "yes y'all" Test all MCs like SATs best say "please" And twist one like Barry Mcgee Scary to see why y'all brothers staring at me Daring to be the only thing that defines me Pete Miser bring it to the ma**es And stay out of sight like Stevie Wonder's sungla**es [Hook] Give me just one rhyme and just one beat And give me just one chance to rock these New York streets Feel the heat Peep this, son allow me to speak ‘Cause, brother New York City is the place to be [Verse 2] If it's the place to be I will m.c The master of the microphone so player leave it to me The type of kid to burn a rapper to the third degree And even maitre d's don't think of serving me Call an emergency if y'all ain't heard of me Caught your girl looking over at me nervously And if I ever made a mill it's cause I earned the fee So check it out I cut the record up like surgery like this… [Record scratches] It's dope flows on tap I'll make one hand clap I make the party get live when I start to rap I drop verses like suspension on your homeboy's Lac I'll make C. Delores Tucker bounce to hip hop tracks I transmit like fax and I back down to none Slap down the sun at dusk before I bust It's a million and one m.c.s out to crush I'll turn their a**es to ashes their a**ets to dust Dangerous made a fuss now I'm making a name Made it plain from the start player who got game Felt the pain of being broke but never felt no shame Cause looking around the world I see I really can't complain [Hook]
